Yes manual updates should work (tar file), although I think there is a bug for updating boot.scr. OTA would be possible if someone would look into update script here https://github.com/OpenELEC/serv ... ules/system.py#L519 and create compatible php script which we could put on the server.

I actually don't see anything there that could help me on the way.
However, I've found this: http://devupdate.leopold.me.uk/ Maybe we could use that addon (with custom URL setting) to update OpenELEC OTA :-)

The code I referenced call some php script on official OpenELEC server (http://update.openelec.tv/updates.php) with appropriate arguments to see if there is a new version. While I couldn't find source of this file I think it shouldn't be too hard to emulate it. It seems that it needs to return json structure something like that (or empty if there is no never version):

{
"data": {
"folder": "some-folder"
"update": "something"
}
}

Copy code

Final update url is formated like this:
'http://%s.openelec.tv/%s' % (folder_value, update_value)

Both urls can be simply changed by the patch during build. Isn't that simpler than including some plugin by default?

Hmm, thanks. Will try to find something here the next few days.

It seems that Kodi wants to switch resolution on the fly due to some error in resolution detection ...

Thank you very much for the explaination!

This might be right, the TV is very old... maybe EDID lags at this model!

Looking forward for new Versions (or a new TV

)

Have a nice day!

About half a minute and then it automatically reboots. If you have troubles I suggest that you try another SD card.

Can you explain this? Saying that doesn't help. Reason for this could be some mainline Kodi change, so I will never fix it, lot less searching for it. Generally, I don't see any stuttering, except in some rare cases with 23.976 fps video. If that is the case, I'm afraid you have to accept that or forever live with 20160203, which is actually not available for download anymore.

ofcourse 23,976fps , maybe i am too sensitive to any presentation glitches, unfortunately all movies have this framerate,
